Organic Date Syrup is for Everyone

Sunday, March 21st, 2010

Organics are for Everyone

Organics are for Everyone’s Date Syrup is a delicious syrup made from dates.  Organic dates and…. nothing else.

How is it so smooth and luxurious and sweetly complex?  Truly, it’s nature’s candy.

Better than candy, it also nutritious with all of the vitamins and minerals of dates.

Here are my top 3 uses:

1. Drizzled over plain yogurt or plain greek yogurt.

2. Poured over pancakes with sliced almonds and shredded coconut.

3. Whipped with tahini (sesame seed paste) and spread over rye (or other whole grain) bread.

Check it out, buy some, no regrets.  Organic date syrup is for everyone!

My first jar was free but now I will be a loyal, paying customer.  Thanks for spreading the gospel.

Shady Maple Farms Syrup: The real deal

Sunday, September 28th, 2008

There are two types of people: those who love real maple syrup and those who prefer the imitation variety.

I was raised on the imitation. It’s cheaper and easier to find. We even had bottles that you could put in the microwave that had a square that would light up when the syrup was hot. Now I’m far too worried about plastic (and microwaves, for that matter) to ever go back to that.

Besides, now I’m addicted to the real deal. Shady Maple Farms in Canada makes a delicious organic syrup in a pretty glass bottle. In the photo it’s all used up. Its last drops went onto a sweet ginger pancake yesterday morning.

Maple syrup is much more expensive, but I love the intense flavor. I would love to try Grade B syrup since I’ve read the flavor is even deeper, but Grade B seems hard to come by. Where do you find it?
